    This people must cease to hold slaves, and to make war on Mexico, though it cost them their existence as a people.

    The definition of good prose is proper words in their proper places; of good verse, the most proper words in their proper places. The propriety is in either case relative. The words in prose ought to express the intended meaning, and no more; if they attract attention to themselves, it is, in general, a fault.
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
